Ormco and DentalMonitoring Unveil New Partnership to Boost Orthodontic Practices' Efficiency
Ormco and DentalMonitoring Join Forces for Orthodontic Growth
In a significant move for the orthodontic industry, Ormco™, a leading provider of orthodontic solutions, has announced an expanded partnership with DentalMonitoring, an AI-powered remote monitoring innovator. The collaboration aims to foster significant growth among orthodontic practices by enhancing clinical efficiency and reducing costs. This partnership was highlighted at the recent AAO 2025 Annual Session.
Enhanced Accessibility for Orthodontic Providers
Under the auspices of this partnership, orthodontic providers utilizing Ormco's technologies in North America can expect substantial benefits. Specifically, they will enjoy a 25% reduction in monitoring fees for all newly initiated cases. This applies to two of the brand's flagship products: the Spark™ Clear Aligners and the established Damon Ultima™ bracket systems.
Philippe Salah, CEO of DentalMonitoring, emphasized that the purpose of their joint efforts is to make remote monitoring more accessible and financially viable for orthodontic practices. He stated, “Our partnership with Ormco provides doctors with not only powerful clinical tools but also meaningful savings that enhance practice sustainability.”
Smart STL Integration: A Game Changer for Workflow
The partnership also introduces the Smart STL feature, which streamlines the process of requesting refinements and retainers. This innovative system allows orthodontists to utilize the integration between DentalMonitoring and Spark™ Approver Software, enabling them to make requests without needing to conduct additional in-office scans or appointments. This feature is expected to elevate both patient convenience and operational efficiency significantly.
The Smart STL works by merging a patient's initial intraoral scan with their latest images taken through DentalMonitoring, alongside the Spark Stage file. The result is a production-ready STL file that orthodontists can employ to initiate refinement or retainer requests within the Spark Approver Software. Jay Issa, Ormco's Vice President of Portfolio Management, described this integration as crucial, explaining that it empowers Spark providers to increase their operational efficiency, reduce overhead costs, and ensure that patients remain aligned with their treatment plans without unnecessary delays.
Showcasing Innovations at AAO 2025
For those eager to learn more, both DentalMonitoring and Ormco will present their expanded partnership, highlighting the Spark Smart STL integration at their respective booths during the AAO 2025 event—specifically at booths #2027 and #1015. To gather additional insights and explore the capabilities of these technologies, attendees are encouraged to visit the official websites of DentalMonitoring and Ormco.
A Pioneering Future in Orthodontics
The groundwork laid by this partnership promises to impact the orthodontics sector positively. With over 60 years of collective experience and innovation in the field, Ormco and DentalMonitoring are poised to lead the charge towards making orthodontic solutions more effective and accessible. Simultaneously, they are committed to assisting orthodontic professionals in achieving their clinical goals while enhancing patient satisfaction.
As the world of orthodontics continues to evolve, the collaboration between these two industry giants heralds a new era of efficiency, affordability, and improved patient care. With their combined dedication, orthodontic practices can not only meet modern challenges but also thrive in a competitive landscape.
